Meet Our Team

I've had over 28 years of experience in human resources and operations positions. Starting in operations management with the General Mill's Restaurant Division, I transitioned into a human resources career and have had the pleasure of working as a Human Resources Executive for Marriott, Choice Hotels, and finally as Vice President - Human Resources for Tollman-Hundley/Trafalgar Tours.

These experiences, combined with my skills in recruitment and organizational development, resulted in my decision to open Management Recruiters - Mid Hudson Valley in May, 2003. As a result of our affiliation with Management Recruiters International and their 500 offices, we are prepared to lead a search in any industry.

We specialize in the following areas:

Non-Profit Organizations

Fundraising/Development

Public Relations/Communications

Foundation Executives/Fundraising Executives

Charitable Organizations

Association/Society Executives

Higher Education Advancement

Advocacy Organizations

We will take the extra steps needed to ensure the best individuals are identified and presented to our clients. We will not allow unsuitable candidates to waste a client's time/resources, nor will we allow our candidates to be considered for positions that do not match their goals, qualifications and aspirations. Additionally, we will place individuals with leadership and team-oriented skills.

Our clients look for and expect the best talent in their industry and field. Our candidates will have exhibited success, will be results-oriented, self-motivated, and display effective leadership/team-oriented qualities.

With a 16-year career in business administration and management, I thoroughly understand the skills necessary for success. Having earned a B.S. in Organizational Leadership from Marist College, I have extensive training in leadership, communications, and marketing. Additionally, I enjoy public speaking, networking, and research.

It is extremely fulfilling to use my experience and education to aid the non-profit clients of Management Recruiters - Mid Hudson Valley. I am an active volunteer in the local community, with a passion for helping others. By carefully selecting the best candidates for each unique position, my ultimate goal is to ensure an outcome that is beneficial for all parties. Beyond exploring a candidate’s employment history, experience, and education, it is critical that there is alignment between the mission and values of an organization and those of the candidate.

At Management Recruiters, we are selective, passionate, and driven to ensure a successful outcome for those that we work with and for.

I perform Database Management at Management Recruiters- Mid Hudson Valley. I am a Dean’s list college student with a strong intellect and an intuitive understanding that I bring to my work at Management Recruiters- Mid Hudson Valley. Being a lifelong resident of Dutchess County, I spearheaded the founding of a non-profit organization designed to help local students travel to Nicaragua to carry out community development projects for impoverished villages. In my free time, I am an avid reader, enjoy running and hiking, and I consider myself a coffee aficionado.
